How deep is the block or what is the length of the longest blade that can be stored without the blade showing over the top of the block.

The block is 8" deep. I just measured our knives and a 8" chef's knife sticks out about 1/2". So a knife with a 7.5" blade would probably not stick out at all. I can't say enough about how happy we are with this knife block (I am not affiliated in any way with Bodun!).

The over all length is about 7". I will also let you know this is a great knife, never looses its edge.

The longest blade I have is 9.75". It fits into the 2" wide slots without coming thru the bottom of the block, but not the lower 1.5" slots. My 7.75" blade fits all but the bottom row of slots.

While there are several wide slots on this block, the widest is exactly big enough for a three-inch blade, and there s only one of them on this block. Looks like you need something bigger.

The block is not adjustable, but I just measured, and it could accommodate approximately an inch more...so a 9" blade could probably fit.

The shaft itself is 5 1/2" log, but the top of the shaft to the bottom of the blade guard is 7 3/8" which is the actual length/depth that is useable making hot soups, salad dressings. This is the best of the power sticks!

I just took some measurements on my block and a 11" knife will fit in the top right slot but it will stick out of the bottom of the block slightly but not to the point that it will be touching the counter.

The outside of the butcher block measures about 4 inches but it is "hollowed" out inside to accommodate the legs. The actual thickness is about one & a half inches.

The blade is 7 inches long with an additional 2 1/2 inches buried in the handle.The metal held in the handle is 1 1/2 inches wide and a full 1/8 inch thick. It's difficult to measure or estimate the thickness of the blade itself as it's slightly concave and the metal is heavier toward the middle. Additionally the edges are beveled. It's a must have tool.... as strong as any I've encountered. Buy it!

The largest blade is about 6 inches. These products are not as great as originally stated, the blades on two of my have broken in less than a year of regular household kitchen use.

I've got about 8 in mine. Only problem is some have to go on an angle as they are longer than the block is deep despite the measurement quoted. Knives do not go all the way to the bottom.

hello - from "tail" touching the wall to the flat front of the knife block is 10.5" - I have some average steak knives in the front and they are sticking out for a total of 14" or so inches. hope this helps.

The longest blade is 2 1/2 inches long. The previous answer is right on the money.

The block is approx. 1-1/4" - 1-1/2" thick. The bowl is scooped out approx. half the thickness of the block (.625" - .666"). I would describe it as a chopping block with a scoop to hold herbs. The scoop is big enough to keep the herbs from crawling all over and off the board. It is a beautiful piece that I easily display and use. Hope this helps.

Hi, The blocks come in many different shapes. The longest is 6" and the shortest about 3"x 2". They are very well built- real quality. Our 7 year old grandson and 9 year old granddaughter enjoy playing with them.
